My sister and I are both vegan and we’re extremely happy with not only the quality and taste of the food, but also our wonderful server. She was very thoughtful making sure our food was vegan and explaining the portion sizes to us. We left stuffed full of yummy food and a smile on our faces. A must eat! Dietary restrictions: Vegan options

Very nice ambiance & family friendly. We were seated right away. I only gave 4 stars because I am vegan & had to share a pot with meat eater. Would love the next generation of innovation for pots. Maybe two separate skinny pots. Vegetarian options: Tofu assortment, Vegan broths, lots of vegetable options. The coconut ice cream is delicious Dietary restrictions: Lots of Vegan, vegetarian options. Variety of Sake option from sweet to dry.

Broth and food are extremely fresh and high quality! Kind and friendly staff. Can’t wait to come back! Only thing I’d say is I wish there was a sauce bar. You’re provided soy sauce with a side of garlic and scallions. It is a very good base but I like how other places let you customize your sauce. Thanks for the great food! Edit: I want to correct my mistake. I said that you aren’t able to customize your sauce. All I had to do was ask… duh! I asked for more garlic and cilantro and within 15 seconds I had it. What a great place!

I love this place, ideal when I want hotpot and I don't have people to share it with. So many different type of broths you can choose from

Paid $80 for a meat platter + fish + a drink. Wasn’t even full. Outrageous considering the hotpot places nearby

Nous avons découvert ce restaurant et le principe du hot pot lors de notre weekend à Boston. Le service etait incroyable: rapide et efficace ! Le serveur a su nous guider au travers du menu pour que nous puissions bien comprendre les différents plats. Que dire de la qualité de la viande ! Cette dernière était incroyable, de même que les différents légumes goutés. Je vous recommande 100% cette place pour un délicieux repas reconfortant et convivial.

We saw a roach crawling on the table while eating, so the waiter let us leave without paying. You can find a few other reviews that mention the same thing, but the management has not done anything to mitigate the issue. Do yourself a favor and find another place to eat.
